"There's also a problem with his character! Partner Lu usually acts fine, but whenever he encounters a more difficult case, he will fly into a furious rage. He'll scold his subordinates in the office for hours on end, and when he's especially mad he will smash things up and, on several occasions, he's nearly gotten into fights with our male colleagues. However, because he's always very serious about each case his strictness causes all of his subordinates to quickly learn and excel."

"Also, he's very meticulous and particular in his demands for perfection. For instance, every time the members go out for dinner, he makes sure we split the bill, and Partner Lu is always accurate to three decimal places when calculating who owes what, and he refuses to take even a penny less. His excellence is very moving."

"And he always takes special care of his female colleagues. For instance, whenever it seems a bit cold in the office, he always takes the initiative to grab the girl's hands and then ask for the office temperature to be adjusted according to the temperature of their hands."

.......

As she finished saying all that, the three people on the other side of the table all simultaneously fell silent and looked at Qian Wei with complicated eyes. Feeling their strange gazes, Qian Wei was confident that this blind date was 100% ruined.

And then, just when Qian Wei's mouth was feeling a little dry from all the talking, Lu Xun finally came back.

When he saw Qian Wei at the table, he was surprised and asked: "What are you doing here?"

"Well, Sister Xiaowei's date still hasn't arrived, so I called her over to eat with us." The curly-haired girl put on a pouty smile and continued. "We were actually talking about you just now."

Lu Xun seemed surprised by this turn of events, but eventually, he nodded: "Well, let's eat together then." He glanced at Qian Wei. "You've already talked to them for a bit, but I'll still introduce you all." Lu Xun pointed to the girl with curly hair. "That's Lu Sheng, my cousin. She recently returned home from abroad." Then he pointed to the middle-aged couple, "And these are my parents."

Qian Wei, who had been in the middle of taking a sip of water because she was feeling thirsty, was shocked by this twist and almost choked.

Horrified, she asked: "Y-you, your parents?"

"Mhm."

Qian Wei looked up once more and finally understood the complicated look in the eyes of the three people on the opposite side of the table just now...

What had she just done?! What did she say in front of Lu Xun's parents?! At this particular moment, Qian Wei desperately wanted to go back in time to five minutes ago and kill herself, if only to prevent herself from saying all that...

"So you were talking about me just now? What were you saying?"

Lu Xun's mother looked at Qian Wei and smiled: "Your colleague seems very interesting. She was telling us some hidden things about you, and some secrets of your law firm."

Lu Xun seemed startled by this answer: "Huh?"

Qian Wei didn't dare let Lu Xun's mother continue speaking, so she immediately filled herself a glass of red wine and raised it: "Auntie, let me propose a toast to you!"

However, Lu Xun's mother wasn't deterred: "This little girl, she just said..."

Qian Wei quickly filled and raised another cup: "Let me toast you again!"

"She said..."

Qian Wei bravely drank one cup after another, until at last her cheeks began to burn and her head became muddled and slow. At that point, she realized she was drunk.
